Monterey Historics, my short eyefull visit... Options

[neo914-6]

It's been years since I've attended but Historic Races still have the intimate exposure to the cars, owners, and drivers...

Ok, so you had to wait in line to get a few seconds with someone like Jim Hall...

Sorry for not hooking up with anyone, I was really pushed for time in the afternoon. Plus I am so out of shape walking up the hills was a challenge. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) I did manage to find Pat's campsite (I think) but no one was there. If you're missing a Pilsner...

Rich, Someone posted a pic of the Black Altec Lansing that was here Fri or Sat. Same car as in the ads with the blonde... Mike, Your welcome, I'm glad to have the opportunity to see the Chaparrals. I'm told it's unlikely they will be pulled out of the museum again. The pictures of the Altec-Lansing car were themselves archival. The Altec-Lansing car IS now the Cerwin-vega car. Nice guy, a little aloof perhaps but we spent a few minutes talking to him. Car is an original six which has been a race car since arrival on these shores. The guy wants to buy one of Martin's gas caps. He is not on 914Club, didn't even know it existed. Very nicely prepared car. Rob

Here is a photo of that 914 racing, I also have the list that was sent to me by the owner when it was for sale.

It is a great car with lot's of History.
